From Joe Zajac
I had a great day of Petanque with a club based in Novi, Michigan.
I became addicted to Petanque just a few weeks ago while in Paris. I practiced in my local park, then met our local club in Novi.
Some time ago they had a Piste built in a central park in Royal Oak. I contacted them and played today and had so much fun I thought I'd send you a few pictures of our times.
Your web site encouraged some pictures, so I thought you might be interested... especially from as remotely as Royal Oak!

Many years ago there was no way of getting your pictures online unless you knew someone with a homepage. Or you mailed them to petanque.org, and we'd put it on the web for you. But nowadays nobody does this thing anymore, there are thousands of ways to get your images online, and our pictures-section is about as dry as the sahara. So we have had to make some changes
Lars Refn was one of the founders of the Copenhagen Petanque Club in Denmark. He is also an illustrator, and has produces a vast number of t-shirts with petanque as the theme over the years.
A positive newsflash fron Chiltern - the young ones have started playing petanque!
We often get questions about when you are to old to play petanque. Some say 90, some 100 and some 120..
